Privatisation nearly 6 month in....

Post by Indy »

Any one noticed any differences between now and pre-privatisation? How your treated, how you do things. Are things better or worse? etc.
Thoughts

The government is the BIGGEST shareholder, owning 30% of the shares. To be the majority shareholder, they would need to own more than 50%
